I'm sure that many of you have your own lists, but here's mine:
- Do you ever press charges?
No, wait. That's Jack Handey's. Here are the ones that I've witnessed or heard about:
- How much vacation and sick leave do you give? [This person isn't hired and is already thinking about leave!]
- Will there be a lot of pressure not to make mistakes? [Naw. We welcome mistakes here.]
- Do you have a sabbatical program? [See 1. ]
- How strict is your dress policy? [I'm not sure but I sense it may need to be stricter.]
- Why haven't I heard about you all before? [I'll have our PR person get back with you on that.]
Any others?

I would recommend discussing leave during negotiations though. Losing a few weeks should be worth something.
If there is a serious negotiation in which both sides have roughly equal power, I think you're right. You may as well go for it.
